We are known for devising and advocating practical solutions for complex legal issues, often in a highly charged political atmosphere. As part of a broad strategy to pursue a client's objectives, our attorneys are experienced in local, state and federal administrative and legislative matters. We have regular contact with a broad spectrum of elected and appointed government officials. When a client has an issue involving a governmental entity, we can readily contact the appropriate government official and begin to solve the problem.

Examples of our past administrative and governmental activities include work on constructing the Colorado Rockies new baseball stadium in Denver, negotiating a new lease of an arena for the Denver Nuggets, procuring $115 million in financing from the State of Colorado to fund an aircraft maintenance facility at Denver International Airport, and assisting contractors and concessionaires in contracting with the City and County of Denver. We have experience in the following areas:

• Economic Development Projects
• Government Contracts
• Administrative Law
• Municipal Law
• Special Districts
• State and Federal Legislation
• State and Local Ballot Initiatives
• Regulatory Compliance
• Land Use and Development
